Clear cell sarcoma: a dilemma on pathological staging and clinical management.

Clear cell sarcoma of the kidney (CCSK) has been classified as high risk tumour in the previous UK and international Wilms tumor studies. The current Society of Paediatric Oncology (SIOP) trial, UK version, advocates chemotherapy including doxorubicin prior to nephrectomy. Pathological staging and histology of the resected tumor are then applied to determine the extent and intensity of the postoperative therapy. We describe an unusual case with a trilobed tumor and debate the appropriate postoperative management.

Metachronous Wilms tumor associated with pulmonary embolism: how can we detect these cases early? A case report and literature review.

A 4-year-old girl developed right metachronous Wilms tumor 2 years after completing treatment for a left-sided stage I Wilms tumor. The original treatment included 7 weeks of chemotherapy, delayed nephrectomy, and another 3 weeks of chemotherapy. The metachronous tumor on the right side extended into the inferior vena cava and right atrium. She developed pulmonary embolism as a result. She received chemotherapy and developed liquifaction of the tumor and toxic shock. She also had surgery. The patient is alive 3 years after the original diagnosis and 10 months after the relapse. The authors report this unusual case and discuss whether these cases can be identified early.
